Chopper chopped...

I thought this article in the Guardian over the weekend was interesting. Reporter describing having the chop at over 60 in the UK. Goes a bit into why it's taken as normal to cut boys in the US, but not elsewhere.

I had my chop at the age of 68, had to every time I peed my foreskin blew up like a balloon and I had to wait for it to empty before I could finish, so glad I had the chop.

The section with the comments by anti-FGM campaigner Leyla Hussein needed to be challenged. Kellogg and others promoted Circumcision as an anti-masturbation measure:" A remedy which is almost always successful in small boys is circumcision, especially when there is any degree of phimosis. The operation should be performed by a surgeon without administering an anesthetic, as the brief pain attending the operation will have a salutary effect upon the mind, especially if it be connected with the idea of punishment, as it may well be in some cases. The soreness which continues for several weeks interrupts the practice, and if it had not previously become too firmly fixed, it may be forgotten and not resumed."
